I could not read or write and dyslexic when I was younger my mum did not realise why I was struggling at school and she made me go to a retired English teacher who helped me to read and write which she achieved by working two part time jobs bringing up 3 children so I have a phobia about reading now I collect books I would like to read painting abstract paintings instead gains my attention which keeps my concentration fixed on the canvas for a longer period of time’

The road thats takes your art but not always you
Share a hobby you’ve picked up recently — what got you into it?
I find the artworld does not appreciate none art school trained artists or people with unskilled talents like a poem with out words or a abstract artist without a clue how to paint or even try. j w turner francis bacon or even me yes i am untrained deslexic can’t spell or write have colour blindness like a elefant without its trunk i am a artist and don’t you forget it i wont give up until i die.
destiny is that fate?
Do you believe in fate/destiny?
Depends fate is a unpredictable time theirs no limit on how,when it grabs you and what it will be.
Destiny will be what makes you paint a painting its the idea and how you precieve the image you are creating a time that you will see the result of your image created by your hands maybe destiny is fate ?

Can you share a positive example of where you’ve felt loved?
Love can work in different ways growing up love from parents and family.
When you get married and you have children and the love you feel with your own family at that moment.
Then their is your love you feel for your life and family around you and how the love of one’s life now is most important than you think to encourage yourself with whats important to you but love conquers all.
Every time
What’s your favorite month of the year? Why?

Heart was then and now

Trying to remember now let alone then when we were young its like a book their is so many pages and chapters to get to the end of your story of make believe and the last chapter is your believe in your self and never give up your goal to live.
Over come any obstacles
What are you most proud of in your life?
Being a dyslexic person from a young age l could not read or write my mum sent me to have private tuition with a local ex teacher she made me to learn how to read from ladybird books which helped me so much and to write as well.
I don’t read very much but I am trying to read a book about louise nevelson. The book title is “Art is Life” by Laurie wilson she wears a stetson and smokes like a trooper.
When I saw a brief on the book, she sculptured in metal and wood, which I am interested in as a abstract artist. The wood sculptures are very angler in shape. that’s why I purchased the book
Can we be scared of trying?
What have you been putting off doing? Why?
Remember, can we be frightened by our own skills or the fear of trying something new that we are scared to do or fear to develop trying to find our true skills, which we know we have ?
